Not only funny, he is smart
Kind, loyal and family glue
The first to cradle a broken heart
This wittiest boy I ever knew.

He lives in fear of boredom
Even through a bout of the flu
He can’t stand a life of ho-hum
This wittiest boy I ever knew.

At first he may seem a quiet mouse
But then laughter is anew
His comebacks are a light house
This wittiest boy I ever knew.

He dribbles on the ball court
He over-extends his curfew
Yet will still play in a snow fort
This wittiest boy I ever knew.

No more sleepovers and playground slides
As he plans his future through
But with him it’ll always be adventurous rides
This wittiest boy I ever know.

The house now feels empty
His classes are somewhere new
Off to find his own giggling sea
This wittiest boy I ever knew.
